And in other Drag Race news, during the month of May, season eight star and runner up, Kim Chi, is donating 10% of the profits from her beauty brand to charity in honour of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month.
Proceeds from Kim Chi Chic Beauty will go to the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum (NAPAWF) organisation to help “build collective power with AAPI women and to gain full agency over their lives, their families, and their communities.”
